Knowledge of global medical device regulatory frameworks

Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills

Working knowledge of security frameworks and standards (e.g., NIST, ISO/IEC 27001, PCI DSS)

Strong collaboration and influencing skills, with the ability to work effectively across technical and business teams

Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tailor complex information for diverse audiences

Strong analytical and problem solving skills, with the ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities

Bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity, Computer Science, Information Systems, Information Assurance, Software Engineering, or a related field
